Let me know what any of you think is best. I'd prefer the first one so that I won't have people scratching their heads over what is going on. Though #2 might be more correct than #1. Something should be changed because it's silly that Diablo 2 cannot run by default.
We should probably do both #1 and #2. I don't think there's any reason to have it disabled by default.
Hm. How does that interact with XRandr? There are still mouse grab issues in some games(half-life comes to mind), often because games do not care to grab the mouse. In this case using XVidMode will cause the mouse to leave the window, which is really disturbing.
But if XRandr will still be used for screen resolution setup, than this is fine.

I haven't had a mouse leave the window in a long time.. Probably because I use DXGrab (unless that has been deprecated)...
